where did everyone go?
Everyone just moved on. There's only about 2 or 3 people still habitually talk here. It's more like a never-ending high school reunion now than an actual community.

Respectfully, I'm not sure why you are asking this. You were inactive for less than 2 years.

we are talking about software engineering right? "whatever apple does tech companies follow", what's wrong with that? Apple did a lot of good things in software engineering believe it or not. Be precise in what specifically annoys you instead of being vague, saying "Apple bad" doesn't mean anything and reflects some ignorance on the subject.
I'm not sure where you are coming from. I never once suggested or implied Apple does not contributing anything to software engineering. It had nothing to do with that at all. You vehemently defending the company when I was directly critiquing every other company speaks a lot more how you view Apple than I do.

Be precise in what specifically annoys you instead of being vague, saying "Apple bad" doesn't mean anything and reflects some ignorance on the subject.
I understand that English may not be your first language, so please understand that when I say "no matter how stupid" both does not mean and is far removed from "this company only produces bad software and/or products and I hate it" or however you are interpreting it.

sorry that's not software engineering but typical blind Apple hatred
How did you possibly conflate tech companies blindly following whatever Apple does with "blind Apple hatred?"

if you're unable to recognize the contributions they've made to the industry for the past decades, then perhaps you need to delve deeper into the subject

Apple does release excellent things every year for the development on their own platforms along with their own API kits which sometimes are very innovative and opens up new use cases, apart from 1. the whole App Store situation where they are reckless and we can all agree on that, 2. the fact they remove support of old software (not hardware) a bit too quickly in some cases
What the hell are you talking about

For decades whatever Apple does no matter how stupid becomes the next trend other tech companies will mindlessly chase.

Bushido was an absolute legend in this community.

Rest in peace, Bushido

does it really need an industry though? we still have blockhead research
I think having a small industry is a good enough line to draw, given that nothing on the Internet is sacred enough to not have at least some research of it.

I've told my friends that Blockland died with most of its dignity as it never developed a small industry of 3D animated research like Roblox and Minecraft where it's just cube primitives smashing against each other.

God I loved TDM and CTF servers growing up, they were and still are my favorite gamemode. It's a real damn shame that they died out long ago.

Off the top of my head I know that by jumping off the slope of tree bricks, you can rapidly accelerate to a point as long as you keep jumping and holding down W. Your jump height will be low but you'll move pretty quickly for a short while.
When friction begins takes over you will begin to decelerate and your jump height will return to normal. As far as I can this mostly works on flat surfaces, as hitting a wall or falling a few bricks will return your speed and jump height to normal. My guess is this is a quirk with max player velocity where you are trading horizontal speed for vertical speed.

It's pretty fun, sometimes I'll load up Beta City and mindlessly do this.

Same here, I don't have the site bookmarked but it always shows up as the 3rd item in my address bar.

I wish I stuck around more like you did and made some lasting friends here. At some point in my teenage angst I "left" the forum for the good part of 3 or 4 years or something like that, and removed anyone associated with the forum from my Steam friends list. While I did make a lot of friends in high school that I still talk with regularly today, it'd be nice to know someone I've known since I was a kid to reminisce about our time here.

Unrelated, and you may not remember it but I remember sending you a hate PM a long time ago way-back-when your Night Fox account was still fresh. Something along the lines of "furries bad, go back to your old one". Either way, I sincerely apologize for that and I wish you well.

My guess bots archiving it looking for "groomers". If so they're gonna be surprised when they realize it's 90% tony and the rest is people genuinely watching colorful horses.

Either that or someone actually likes the thread and doesn't wanna lose it but I kinda doubt anyone would put the effort into it unless they were trying to dunk on someone.
Probably bots, but it's more than likely they're web crawlers scraping forum posts for training data.

It must've completely fallen out of my conscious mind just how bad it actually was. I remember all of this. Jesus christ.

Looking back at the BLF's history, it's absolutely insane what kind of stuff this community just glanced over and let slide back then
I guess when you're a kid you don't give it much thought. I remember reading those mailbags without a second thought as to how immature and messed up they were. Now I feel pretty damn bad for saying this place wasn't too bad before.

Banning the forum account + revoking their key would certainly help prevent future victims, especially if they're put on a ban on sight list. Of course you can't stop it, but it can certainly be mitigated; Badspot had not taken any of these measures to mitigate these behaviors. Also, they would likely wind up messaging someone who did know the signs and report it. It's not a guarantee for sure. However, it's not the fact that he failed to prevent it; it's the fact he took no measures at all to prevent or mitigate it unless it was glaringly obvious and sometimes not even then.

I wouldn't be assigning a decent amount of blame to Badspot if he took steps to not let things like this happen.
My apologies, I hadn't considered a lot of this. When you put it like that, I wholeheartedly agree.
